M77 Boots Size Guide

We recommend going a size down, when you're on the fence. The M77s were originally designed for Northern feet, that tend to be wider and feel larger than normal.

M77 Boots: Built for Durability and Comfort in Extreme Conditions

The M77 Boots are one of the most iconic military boots in the world, known for their military-grade durability and exceptional comfort. Designed specifically for the Norwegian Army, these boots took over 10 years to perfect, ensuring that they meet the harsh demands of military environments. Crafted from 2.8-3 mm full-grain water-repellent leather, the M77 boots provide not only unmatched protection from moisture but also breathability, making them suitable for diverse conditions.

These boots are designed to withstand extreme environments while offering the wearer comfort and protection over extended periods of time. The full-grain leather upper is incredibly tough and long-lasting, yet still flexible enough to mold to the wearer’s feet over time. The water-repellent leather ensures that feet remain dry in wet conditions, a crucial factor when tackling outdoor terrains.

Key Features of the M77 Norwegian Military Boots:

  • Upper Material: The M77 boots are made with 2.8-3 mm full-grain leather, which is both water-repellent and breathable. This premium leather is not only incredibly durable but also designed to resist the elements, making the boots long-lasting.
  • Outsole: These boots are equipped with a direct-injected PU outsole, which offers superior traction on rough, uneven terrain. This feature ensures the wearer can confidently navigate all types of environments.
  • Lining: The Cambrelle textile lining under the vamp helps wick moisture away from the foot, adding to the overall comfort and moisture resistance of the boot.
  • Insole: The anatomical insole is both antibacterial and shockproof, providing added cushioning to reduce impact. The fact that it’s removable and washable makes it easier to maintain the hygiene and comfort of the boots.

Designed for Versatility

One of the standout aspects of the M77 boots is their unisex design, making them ideal for both men and women. The sizes run slightly larger, making them perfect for use with thermal or double socks. This feature is especially helpful for those planning to wear these boots in extreme cold weather conditions, where additional insulation is required.

Durability That Lasts

The M77 boots are built to last and offer excellent value for money. The sturdy construction of the boots, combined with their premium materials, ensures that they will remain durable with proper care. Regular maintenance, such as applying grease to the leather, will extend their lifespan significantly, making them a long-term investment. As with all full-leather boots, these will take some time to break in, but once they do, they will mold perfectly to the foot, providing exceptional comfort and support for many years to come.

A Trusted Name in Military-Grade Footwear

Manufactured by Samelin, a trusted name in military footwear, these boots are crafted in Estonia to meet NATO AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001 quality standards. Samelin is renowned for producing combat boots for various NATO forces, including those of Germany, Finland, Norway, Latvia, and Estonia.

  • Military-Grade Standards: Trusted by the Norwegian Army and other NATO forces, the M77 boots adhere to the strict standards required for military footwear. They meet NATO AQAP 2110 standards, ensuring that they can perform in some of the harshest environments on Earth.

9 reviews for M77 Boots – Legendary, Durable Norwegian Army Boots for Extreme Conditions

  1. Anes

    Just wanted to let you know the boots arrived and they’re a perfect fit! If anybody ever asks you what boot size fits EU 40 tell them 37 is the way to go.

  2. From Reddit

    Used them? Love them! Best boots ever and they cost less than any fancy sneakers and they last for 5 to 6 years with daily use. Only “con” is the walk in period as they are very stiff so wear thick socks and have a band aid ready but for the lifetime of the boots the con is worth it.

  3. From Youtube

    I moved to Norway about 4 years ago and picked myself a pair of M77 on the recommendation of my boyfriend and they are without a doubt the best boots I have ever owned just in terms of sheer toughness. I have flat feet so having a good shoe is important to me and there is plenty of room to fit a decent set of insoles in there to be able to keep on hiking all day.

  4. From Reddit

    When you buy these new, they don’t fit perfectly yet.

    Find a shallow river or similar, with the M77 on, walk with them in the river to soak them completely and walk for a long time with wet feet and boots for a while to get perfect fit!

    It’s not comfortable, but the boots will have a perfect fit after this! Then polish with some good black shoepolish to waterproof them, and keep applying as needed to keep them shiny and waterproofed…you’ll have boots that’ll last for a long time!

    One thick sock will be more than enough, that was my experience in -37 degrees Celsius, but only if you’re active…stand still in these temperatures, and you’re a snowman in no time 😛

  5. From Reddit

    I wore mine for about seven years after leaving the armed forces, including taking them to Israel, wearing them when hiking in the desert. I used the woolen socks from the navy when doing so, in 45 degree weather (in the shade). I was the one whose feet was the coolest of anyone, and that smelled the least, after a week of hiking in the Negev.

    They do, however, get cold in the winter, as there is very little insulation in them. I know a few people who have two pairs, one for the winter, and one for the rest of the year, with the winter pair being a size too large, to accomodate extra socks in the wintertime.

  6. Sanna

    I recently purchased a pair of M77 black combat boots and I have to say that they are by far my favorite winter boots. I previously had a pair of Dr Martens boots, but once i had M77 boots worn-in, definitely prefer them!

    The M77 boots are incredibly comfortable and they have a sleek, military-inspired design that I love. They are also incredibly durable and have held up well in the harsh winter weather. I’ve worn them on long hikes and they have never let me down.

    Overall, I would rate the M77 combat boots a 10/10. They are the perfect combination of style and function, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a new pair of black winter boots.

  7. lasplesis

    Do take a size smaller than usual, otherwise they can feel big on the sides. Also recommend protecting them with tons of shoe polish. Once worn in, super comfortable.

  8. From Reddit

    I have to say, those are one of my favorite boots for hiking and hunting. I have had one pair for almost 9yrs and one year of army use, sadly they now got a hole in them.

  9. Neeme

    Took 5 years, but wore out a pair of these. The sole for one of the boots broke down (I did manage to step into a puddle of fuel at a gas station with that sole). The rest of the boots were perfectly fine, even after 5 years.

    One note about the included laces – ONLY round laces work on hook boots, not flat laces, so a little disappointed about receiving flat laces originally. Other than that, definitely recommend!
